Modern Warfare 3 Leads The Way In Japan

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has gone straight to the top of the Japanese weekly softare charts, with the PlayStation version selling 180,000 units.

The game was also released on the Xbox 360 where it sold an additional 30,000 copies, but it was also a good week for western games in general. Saints Row: The Third debuted in 5th place and Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary appeared in 15th.

Square Enix published Modern Warfare 3 in Japan and they will hope the game can keep this momentum going in the weeks to come.
